| My introduction to German Shepherds came at an early age with our family dog Fred. This prompted a life long love of the breed and the purchase of my first German Shepherd "Gina" in 1974. She produced my first litter of puppies in 1979 and from then on I was hooked. |

Gina, Val & Persha |

Lazita of Bedwin |
With the affix "Jacamar" I successfully bred a number of litters that made wonderful family pets but my ultimate aim was to produce top class show dogs whilst maintaining the temperament and versatility of the true German Shepherd Dog. In 1989 with a change of personal circumstances and the purchase of Lazita of Bedwin I registered the affix "Avinja's". Zita in her own right attained top honours at local shows but exhibiting started in earnest with her offspring. |
| Lazita of Bedwin produced a litter of puppies to the import Arko v Hunnagrab one of which was my well-known top producing female Avinja's Celebrity. In Zita's next litter to Champion Laios v Noort she produced my first Champion, Avinja's Griff. It was when Griff was a puppy that I joined forces with Tony Hughes (Codel's German Shepherds) and the long campaign began. |

Our first sucess was Champion Avinja's Griff, pictured left, quickly followed by
Ch Avinja's Odin, one of A.Celebrity's many successful offspring. Her progeny also included Ch.A.Henry who is currently enjoying great success in Kenya as well as the top winning female A.Reesha owned by Dee and John Paul and A.Tina owned by Phil and Maggie Snell. Currently we have A.Tazz and his son Amondahl Oberon at Avinja's together with A.Lucy to go forward with in the future.
